Enhancing your multifamily home's curb appeal gives you a chance to attract potential renters while improving the value of your property. While big projects often take time and substantially more money, there are plenty of ways to improve the look of your home on a budget. Check out these top tips from Targa Real Estate to add easy upgrades to your property.

Paint exterior doors

It's truly amazing how much impact a fresh coat of paint can have. If your exterior doors feel old and worn, give them a quick refresh. You can choose the same color or try something bold, like deep blue or eye-catching red. Before you begin, remove any hardware you can, like door handles and mailbox slots, and sand down the door to remove any chipped or flaky areas. You can find paint colors and all the tools you need for prep at a local hardware store.

Install new outdoor lighting

One of the easiest ways to improve a multifamily home's curb appeal is to upgrade outdoor lighting. Porchlights and wall sconces are inexpensive and simple enough to install by yourself. You can also explore walkway lighting for an added special touch. To avoid complicated wiring, pick up individual solar lights that fit right into the ground. You'll never have to change a bulb or manage extra electricity costs.

Add outdoor planters

Landscaping is a surefire way to improve curb appeal, but depending on the size of your property, this type of project can run high on the budget scale. Unless you're ready to roll up your sleeves and do your own gardening, planters offer quick and easy ways to add visual appeal to any home. Find all-season plants at your local nursery if you prefer something low maintenance, and grab decorative pots that match the general look of your exterior.

Your multifamily home's curb appeal doesn't have to be complicated or expensive as long as you're willing to add a little elbow grease. Optimizing sunlight is another excellent way to add small touches that make a big difference. To learn more about multifamily home management or to hire a pro, contact our team today.
